Welcome to the latest episode of our official podcast, The Film Stage Show. This week staff writer Danny King, associate editor Nick Newman, and I are joined by TFS’ own editor-in-chief Jordan Raup. We begin by talking over our favorite time travel films before delving into the newest entry into this particular sci-fi canon, Looper, by director Rian Johnson. To end we take a look at the films coming to theaters and DVD in the coming week, which include Pitch Perfect, Iron Sky, and more. Then we give you our random recommendations of things we watched on our own this week.
